Why not sign the Birdman Chris Anderson

This organization needs some excitement why not sign the Birdman? It would get our team some publicity and we need a big man to fill the void if/when JO ever comes back. He would be great to watch on the fast break and could be the shot in the arm this organization needs.

Considering he was kicked out of the league for drugs, I don't think he would exactly help the Pacers' PR at the moment.

The only way our organization is going to do anything this year is by signing a free agent. I know he was kicked out of the league for severe drug use (not the ganja) but we have one roster spot left and instead of signing then cutting Courtney Simms for the third time bring him in for a workout and see what he can do. Rush worked out well. You have to admit he would be fun to watch dunking the ball pre game warmups.

Re: Why not sign the Birdman Chris Anderson

Ya, why not sign a guy that smokes so much he puts the rest of the Pacers to shame? Lol, sorry, but that is a horrible idea.. I always though he was a little "off" and when the drugs thing came out it made sense. We don't need another guy that pulls in more news headlines then sports headlines.

Re: Why not sign the Birdman Chris Anderson

EDIT: This talk about Bird & an all white lineup is a disgrace, it severly weakens this board.

I agree, I made a joke about it yesterday thinking I was cute. And after thinking about it the whole things seems old and dumb, but anyway even though some of the more avid NBA fans might understand why the Pacer's want to give Andersen a shot I just don't think that there is anyway they would take a small chance on any other bad PR in this city. No Birdman for us.
